  • Fantastic visit. The front desk staff, intake coordinator, hygienist, and dentist were all wonderful. I wish I had their names to give them a shoutout. I’ve had mixed experiences here in the past, but today was great.

    Emma B 14th & U

  • I scheduled a Saturday emergency visit for tooth pain, and it went very well. From the moment I walked into Tend Dentistry, I felt at home. The receptionist was warm and engaging and helped me with any questions. The support staff were friendly and extremely professional. Dr. Joyce reviewed the X-rays and photos with me and explained the diagnosis and treatment in detail.

  • I’ve had a great experience at Tend! Dr. Farah Jiwani and the team are super welcoming and really make sure you’re taken care of. I recently moved to DC and hadn’t found a dentist yet, and I’m so glad I came across Dr. Farah. She gave me great advice, did excellent work, and always made sure I was comfortable during my visits. I definitely recommend her if you’re looking for a dentist you can trust!

  • I love this place. It is on the expensive side, but I love being able to come in for a cleaning and watch Chopped while my teeth get polished. The staff is professional, and the space is clean. I appreciate being able to brush and use mouthwash before I start.
